The following Pre-Start Checks should be carried out before taking the machine to the
place of work.
1. Damaged or Loose Fittings.
Visually Inspect the machine for signs of wear and tear, damage, loose or missing
parts.
2. Wheels. (For towing only)
Check tyres are at the correct pressure, 55 psi (3.8 bar) and that the wheel nuts are
tightened using the correct torque setting (100Nm).
3. Hydraulic fluid.
The hydraulic oil tank is located underneath the slew cover on the right hand side of the
machine (looking from the cage end).
With the booms and outriggers in the transport position, the hydraulic oil level should be
visible between the upper and lower marks of the dipstick.
See Fig 3
Do Not Overfill the Hydraulic Tank
Serious injury or even death may result by not carrying out the
following checks of the interlock system before the platform is
used!
Top up with ISO Grade 22 hydraulic oil if necessary.
4. Safety Switches.
Check all limit switch arms are free from damage and move easily, see Fig 2.
With outriggers in transport position, it must not be possible to operate the extending
structure.
5. Battery Power
Check batteries are fully charged and topped up with distilled water (these are fitted
under the slew cover) and that the Battery Isolating Plug is securely connected.
Hydrometer reading should be 1280- 1320sg.
